Very versatile rodI have the 16 foot rods and LOVE them. My home lake is Lake Washington in Mississippi and its a shallow lake. The 16 foot rods catch fish 3 to 1 over shorter rods and this rod has enough backbone to handle whatever hits it and sensitive enough to detect light bites.
I use this rod for spyder rigging, long lining, and pulling cranks. It's to heavy to jig fish with.
Only complaint is the eyes. They are weak and flatten out quick. I just bend them back into place. BPS stands behind what it sales so if one breaks will just take it in and exchange it.

Worth the investmentCrappie fishing is my favorite and I have been using this rod from BPS for(tightline) spider rigging for the past two years. I started with the older version and have purchased these new ones. These new ones have color( which I like) but more importantly are lighter than the older ones. This rod is tough, tough, tough! I have been hung on everything from submerged trees to big bass and big cats and this rod displayed no sign of weakness. The high vis tip is a must. I have purchased the 12, 14, and 16 foot rods. I prefer the 16' length because it is farther away from the boat but I started out with the 14' which is easier to handle. I have purchased 14 of these. It is an excellent tool if you are serious about crappie fishing. The eyelets are weak but there are plenty of them if they brake. I still rate it as a 5 star rod.
